Oh ......"

　Stepping into a cavernous dungeon at the foot of a mountain - a grassy plain spread out all around.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A forest existed in the distance, and even a river flowed through it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When I looked up, I saw a beautiful sky that seemed bluer than the one outside.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although I was supposed to be inside the cave, I could not help but be amazed at the grasslands as far as the eye could see.

(This dungeon has a different atmosphere from "The Abyss." ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In my mind, I compare this dungeon to the one we are currently in.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The "Abyss" is basically a cave type dungeon with no grasslands, volcanoes, or glaciers, no matter how far underground you go.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The dungeons we dived in during the "Gathering of Tribes" period were also cave-type dungeons, so it was a fresh surprise to see grasslands spreading out as if we were outside, even though we had entered a dungeon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There are several types of dungeons: some, like "The Abyss," are caves, others, like this one, are meadows that are no different from the outside world, and still others are intricate labyrinths.

　The reason why this is the case is a mystery even to experts, and there is even a widespread argument among researchers that it is "the power of the evil gods.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, there are multiple types of dungeons.

I see other adventurers are coming later. Let's move on now."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nemmu, standing behind me, calls out to me and I start walking.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He started moving so as not to get in the way of the adventurers who would come later.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They continue walking toward a secluded spot - a forest visible in the distance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Gold, walking in the lead, looks around with interest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It really is a big place," he said. Even if it's not that big, isn't it bigger than the city?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Perhaps. But when I was at the "Gathering of the Tribes" I heard that it was a tasty dungeon where you could earn money and get treasure chests,......, but there is a big difference between seeing and hearing. If the dungeon is this large, outdoor lodging supplies are a must, but on the other hand, if you stay in the dungeon for a certain period of time and kill monsters, you can get materials and magic stones in one go. And since we'll be in and out in a shorter amount of time, we'll have a better chance of stumbling upon treasure chests."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As for why I chose the dungeon in this city - it is that far from the city where I stayed during the "Gathering of Tribes" period, and there are few beings who notice me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I thought it would be easy to raise my rank due to my good reputation among adventurers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, when I opened the lid, I found that it was a dungeon of the open-air lodging type. ......

"Master Dirk, would you like to change places?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nemum calls out to me from behind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As expected, after entering the dungeon, he removes his hand from my shoulder and takes some distance to look behind and around me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since we are not far from the dungeon entrance, I can see other adventurers here and there, but no one tries to listen in on our conversation even though they are paying attention to us because they do not know when they will be attacked by monsters.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I shake my head at Nemum's suggestion.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was surprised at how much space there is on each floor, but that's all there is to it. It doesn't change what we do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Our goal is to raise our adventurer ranks and gain access to a wide variety of information as we move up the ladder.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　All we have to do is defeat monsters, advance through the ranks, and raise our ranks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The work remains the same.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Besides, these dungeons are fresh and interesting. Since it's a good opportunity, why don't we stay here for the time being and raise our adventurer ranks?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Wahahaha!"　It's true, usually everywhere you look, there are rocks everywhere."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I like it. It's a dungeon where Master Dirk rules.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since I had only entered cave-type dungeons before, this dungeon, which also had grasslands, forests, and rivers flowing inside, was honestly fresh and interesting.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Gold and Nemmu did not disagree with my opinion, and agreed to raise their adventurer ranks in this dungeon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We walked along lightly as if we were on a picnic.

　We arrived at the forest without being attacked by any monsters.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We proceeded further into the forest to avoid being seen.

Nemumu.

...... Monsters in a 100 meter perimeter, no popularity.

R, detect, R, silent, SR, magic jamming released.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's not that I don't believe in Nemum, but just to be safe, I scouted the perimeter with my "Infinite Gacha" card.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After confirming that there is no one popular, he uses "Silent" to keep his voice from leaking out, and "Magic Jamming" to block or make impossible any magic or other means of surveillance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After ensuring their safety, they move on to their next action.

Then let's quickly find the stairs of this level and go to the second level."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Lord, don't we have to kill the monsters on this level?'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's easier to raise your adventurer rank by defeating monsters on the second and preferably third floors than on the first, right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then I will go forth and do my best to find the stairs to this tier!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nemmu's eyes lit up as she snorted, "It's my turn," but I let out a slight giggle and waved my hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even if the hierarchy is extensive, Nemmu, with her LV 5,000, should be able to find the stairs in about an hour.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But even with her strength, it would still take around an hour.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since that time is not worth it, I use the "Infinite Gacha" card to locate it and head for it immediately.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's why she came all the way to the secluded depths of the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Nemmu, I'm sorry to interrupt your exertions, but I intend to find her with the "Infinite Gacha" card, "SSR Senryaku-gan."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sorry, I overstepped my bounds. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't need to apologize," he said. I'm just glad to see Nemm's motivation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......, Master Dirk!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nemmu was truly happy to be praised by me, her face reddened to the point that even her brown skin was visible, and her body trembled with moist eyes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Ignoring her, Gold peeked into my hand with interest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked at the card with interest. Is that how you're going to find the stairs in this hierarchy?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, it's called 'SSR Clairvoyance' ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

SSR Clairvoyant" - a card that allows the user to discover and see distant objects desired by the user. However, it cannot see objects whose conditions are unknown, unknown to the user, or too far away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'This is another useful card. I am really surprised at how many cards the Lord has in his hand. That's my Lord!　Wa-ha-ha-ha!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Convenience is convenience, but it also has various limitations. It's not something that can be universally praised.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At Gold's bold laugh, I do my best imitation of him and show him a shrug of the shoulders.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After shrugging his shoulders, he quickly uses his card.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll use it then. Clairvoyance Release!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Use "SSR Senri-Gan" with the image of a staircase.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even though my eyes are closed, I can see the backcountry, which is far away from the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The viewpoint advances automatically and discovers a staircase in the depths of a cave hollowed out of a huge mountain face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At the same time, the clairvoyant card disappears from his hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Okay, I've located it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Explain to Gold and Nemum the location of the two-level staircase.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I explained that if they proceeded straight into the backcountry from this forest, they would find a cave hollowed out of the mountainside that looked like a dead end.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm glad it was in such an easy to find place," he said. Then let's move quickly to the second level.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am certainly thankful that it is so easy to understand. We don't have to walk on the ground, we can get to this side of the city in an instant by the way we came!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is quite a distance from my former hometown to this city.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Normally, I would have to travel down the river and take a couple of months traveling by horse-drawn wagon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, with the combination of the "SSR, Existence Hiding" and "SR, Flight" cards, I was able to quickly and easily travel through the sky to this town without being seen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With this, it was literally a hop, skip, and a jump to the first level of the staircase.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He had calculated that deep into the forest, hadn't he? You've calculated your way deep into the forest, Master Dirk!　You have a great eye for detail!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you, Nemm. Let's get moving then."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is nice to be praised with open arms, but it is still embarrassing to be praised honestly from the front.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I immediately use the card to cover up my embarrassment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"SSR, cloaking presence, SR, flight, released!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　First, "SSR, Existence Concealment" conceals our existence. Our presence cannot be recognized by the five senses, magical powers, or magic items.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The "SR, Flight" card literally allows us to fly for 24 hours.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When you say "Fly" in your mind, your body will soar up into the sky.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Once you have reached a certain altitude, you can start flying again by thinking in your mind in the direction you want to go.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder if the view is spectacular, spectacular!"　The Lord's power is truly awesome. Such a view, I doubt those of us on earth will ever be able to worship!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As much as it pains me to agree with Gold, you'd have to be a bird, or even a dragon, to appreciate this spectacular view. This alone is worth it for me to have come up to the ground - I'm in a dungeon now - but it was worth it. We are truly glad that we were summoned by Master Dirk."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm glad you two are pleased. Well then, let's move on to the stairs leading to the second level."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When I heard Gold and Nemmu's reply, I, who knew the location of the stairs leading to the second level, took the lead and flew in front of them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We continued to fly toward our destination, gazing at the adventurers walking on the ground below us, fighting monsters, and the dynamic scenery of rivers, forests, and mountains.
